I'm trying not to panic here, but I'm looking at the upcoming fixtures and wondering where our next points are coming from. Boro at home (Monkeyman will be champing at the bit) , Wolves away (top of the pile so nuff said) then Barnsley away (their Cup Final) . We're doomed Capt Mainwaring. doomed 😜

Fair point. we tank Bristol Titties at their place and now they've won 3 on the bounce and are back in the game. I can't wait for our turnaround 👍

I can see TC being dismissed after the Boro game. Too much to bear for AR to see Monk beat us.

Agree4 Disagree1

Dont think boro will beat us. May be a stay of execution for tc
But realistically and in all honesty. I don't think he has what it takes and it will be a short stay.

Agree0 Disagree0

George is right. If Boro give us a hiding then TC will be gone.

Agree2 Disagree0

07 Nov 2017 14:59:19
Notts I don't think it will even take a hiding. A defeat will be sufficient for TC to go. Who do you go for once he's gone?

The problem is George that British Managers don't like the head coach role where players are supplied by Orta for them to coach. It probably points to recruiting a head coach from abroad however I would want the coach to be from an established league, preferably Germany, which has more in common with regards to physicality.

Maybe Bobby Davison has a point? If Lassoga plays again TC should say. You - get in the box. You two - put in crosses. Simples.

All fine and dandy if he could win a header challenging with a defender. Maybe if he's left alone in the 6yard box. Then great. 👍⚽️⚽️😂

Okay Bats, point taken. New system - NFL - Get two big forwards to run interference for him?

Get ayling and phillips to help lass out. They spend most of their time that end of the pitch.

Having just been in several shops and can now watch back to back films there is only one thing left. Merry Christmas. Surely must soon be time for our annual Christmas wish list?

who at this point would get rid of TC? thumbs up for yes, down for no.

Should never have got rid of Green. All problems start at the back and let in 2 more soft goals. Sort that and we're in a decent place but hard to see what TC can do with the options he's got there short of trying youth and inexperience

06 Nov 2017 14:39:37
Undecided at the moment but there's something not right.

Agree2 Disagree0

06 Nov 2017 14:39:40
Needs to go 5 - 3 - 2 and start to make sure we are not losing games, especially away from home . Shut up shop and hope our creative players can magic up a few goals . Get to January window and fill in the gaps

Something not right jay? Careful. don't comit yourself. let's lose 7 more before we panic!

I wish pundits and the press would stop suggesting new recruits for us. At least stop suggesting more midfielders. Please spread your net and try looking at Left Backs and CentreBacks before you add to our overcrowded midfield. When the defence get their concerted mojo back I am sure the pixie dust will spread to the misfiring midfield and all will be well with the world.

Given the results it's understandable that the various permutations come out to make things right. Unfortunately there are a few players that aren't up to the job yet. Both goalkeepers FW&AL; Roofe; Grot. Others that had good and bad periods and therefore can't be relied upon consistently: Lasogga (when he doesn't score) , Heranadez, Phillips (reckless) , O'kane (sloppy at times) , Alioski, Dallas (ok when coming on as sub or left back) , Saiz (when he is not on the ball, Cooper (plays well the messes up) Jansson, Ayling (at the moment below par) Beradi ( when out of position) . Given that it's not surprising we struggle for long periods of time and can't convert possession into chances. Mid table at best unless the players can start to shape up or others are drafted in. Don't care what system TC uses at the moment it's just down to players.

I agree its more the players than the systems at the moment. there is a few things i'd change but just looks like teams want it more than us. And some decisions (like Pontus challenge) is totally out of a mangers control.

What your saying is the players bought in are not up to the job, and a lot of wasted money, when all was needed was a couple of decent players added to what we already had. Who ever advised us to bring in this lot should go. Top Cat need to step up show he can do the job, I would say if he loses on the 19th his days will be number.

Taxi for TC, Felix, Lonergan, Lasogga, Grot, . aw stuff it just send the bus! and guess who’s driving? It’s our one and only, resident oxygen thief and Uncle cuddler Mr Odea Odea! Lol let’s get excited for watching England! Whoop whoop! Please come back Mr Monk, we miss your exhilarating and exciting interviews! MOT

I'm not sure what the crux of the issue is here - was it the recruitment that was not good enough or were we simply unable to get the players we wanted? Could it be TC? We seem to be playing the same players and making the same mistakes. Letting Stockdale slip through our fingers seems to be a glaring error. We were easily outclassed on Saturday so something needs to change. I still think we have glaring holes in the squad - we hoped that the players we were all crying out for were not actually needed after all but it seems tat they actually are. We need to see better from some of the new lads, especially the likes of Klich who was raved about but has not done anything.

Cant call felix back into the team. He needs to be sold. Get the youngun back from loan! Or peceivere with lonegren. By taking pontus off lonegren will be under less pressure from constant back passes i'd drop pontus and ayling. Play anita coop shaun berahdi. Drop kane and phillips and use alioski second half maybe. Play viera klich hern dallas Drop lass Play Saiz roofe I dunno. We are in a lot of trouble. I don't believe so many just start doing the wrong things and playing badly. I think it has to be TC asking them to do the wrong thing. He has a break now. He should take a few days off to reflect what's happening. Watch all the defeats again.

early in the season we seemed to move the ball quickly and crisply and make good runs and have good ideas - that all seems to have evaporated now. why? We need to get back to that to rediscover our form and make use of the players that we brought in.

If we put Pbf in goals and things went wrong then you'd all be cursing him and that could destroy his development aus, coaches know more than we do and they obviously think now is not his time

Fully agree Alf. It's mental thing, not physical. We know they can do it but recently, the pace has slowed, the passing has drifted and the decision making has let too many down. It may be that January has an answer but that would be sad. We know there are players here already who have the skill base just need the confidence.

Bloody mess at the moment. Lots of backpassing, then hoofing it forward, to them as often as us. Not enough passes forward, but often quite hard to do so, as our players further forward often do bugger all off the ball and allow defenders to near enough man mark them to the point that you cannot get the ball to them. Some of them need setting about with a cattle prod or a taser at the moment to make them show a pulse or other signs of life. Having watched games early doors, we should have cruised in some of the more recent games. If some of them don't improve soon, they should be put on eBay, with no reserve price. That'll learn em. Rant over.
